These corn flake chocolate chip cookies are chewy chocolate chip cookies with a nice bit of crunch to them. The corn flake cereal adds such a nice texture to these.
Begin by melting your butter. Set it aside to cool while you assemble the other ingredients. This will prevent it from being too hot and scrambling your egg when you add it into the dough.
Next, add your dry ingredients (except the chocolate chips and cereal) to a large mixing bowl. Mix well with a large spoon.
Next add in your butter and egg. Mix well with a hand mixer. Dough may seem crumbly but it is normal.
Next, stir in your chocolate chips and crushed corn flakes with a large spoon. Stir until the dough is a little more formed.
Chill for at least 30 minutes (you can also chill overnight, if desired) then either by hand or using a large cookie scoop, form the dough into balls (about 1 ½ tbs).
Grease two baking sheets and be sure to leave lots of room on your baking sheet for the cookies to spread. Bake at 350 degrees for 10 to 12 minutes or until the edges are golden brown.
Notes
I crushed my corn flakes by hand just a little. You can crush them more or less depending on your personal preference.
Do not skip chilling the dough or the cookies will spread too much.
